Help me to impove my eduction by scholarship

I want to improve my life by taking a big step towards education and finding a right career.
When I came to USA I knew nothing and very soon I became victim of violence, emotionally and physically abused. At that time I believed I was not a victim but a survival. I thought I must make up my life and nothing should put me down anymore. I decided to go to college to improve my education, find a good career and be a lady and live as a lady. Now I am on my own, no family, no friend, no one is there to help me, but I will make it. Now I am attending community college. I am not fluent on English so it takes more time for me to study than the other student. I believe life is hard and full of challenging, but if we want, wecan make it easy and beautiful.
I love America and I want to live here for the rest of my life. In my home country there is not any opportunity to make up the life or getting result of the efforts but here if we try hard, one day we will get the great result.

Hi! I enjoyed reading reading your post. I am so happy to hear that throughout all of the obstacles that you had to overcome that you are still so optimistic. It is truly touching.

When I was reading your article, I was wondering where you are originally from?

Good luck with your schooling!

For your concerning, I am Persian. I enjoyed of reading your comment. It's true that I have been through hard time for 6 months, but I didn't give up (which many people do). I wish u luck either.

What help do you need?
What languages do you understand and speak?
What direction of career do you have in mind?
What do you love about America?
What is your concept or content (view) of achieving result?

;-)

The only help I need is to find a right and appropriate scholarship. I am Persian and I speak Farsi and English is my second language. I am majoring in accounting and finance. It's my first year in college and I wanna be an accountant one day. I believe it is on demand.
What I love about America is, I call it land of opportunity and freedom. No matter I am a foreigner, I have the same rights as American, I can live my life and its depend on me, how to make my life.
My concept is have a better life without worries and be independent.
What about you?
